Swelling 8 hours after lip filler. When will this go down? Is it normal?(Photo)

Thanks for your question and photo. This is normal. Swelling can last for about 24 hours. It might be best to sleep with your head elevated.

Thank you for your
question. Swelling and bruising are very common side effects of facial fillers, especially in the lips. Swelling can last up to two weeks. Cold compress can help with discomfort. To be sure, see two
or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to
make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have
treatment.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. It is common to have some swelling and bruising after fillers for lip augmentation which can take up to 2 weeks to resolve. You can apply cold compresses to the treated area(s) to help reduce swelling and bruising. It is also advisable to avoid any NSAID’s such as ibuprofen before and after treatment as they tend to thin the blood and increase the risk of bruising. If you have any other concerns please contact your injector. Best of Luck!
